BACKGROUND
I was born in country used to be Czechoslovakia and because I still feel as Czechoslovakian, I'd like to present something very Czechoslovakian. The music band Cechomor play almost forgotten folk music in very nice way and song Mezi horami is the most beatifull peace played by them.

The son AMBI composed by Roman Ferianc (This is Kevin) is very good ambient song with samples of Slovakian folk music in it, one of my favourite female vocal performances at the end of this song.

Pozon Snetimental in album Urban Songs - trying to alive the tradition of pub music in Czechoslovakian inns, singing Egon Bondy, philosopher, poet and writer, very famous in Germany and Czech rep. and Slovak. rep.
Comment

COMMENTS

Mezi Horami is a powerful track and I first heard it when it was played by just two of them - not the whole band - and it was great. Some of us know vaguely about Egon Bondy (Plastic People etc.), and I'd like to hear him with Pozon. Would love to hear all of this choice in the LJ context!
